It is necessary to integrate Dai Ye's explanation to interpret my understanding of the film.
This 1973 American "Feelings of the Past" tells the story of a low-class girl falling in love with a high-class boy from the 1940s to the 1960s in the United States.
Two classes of love, this boy is always light and easy, love is a kind of adventure for him, "you love me a challenge to the class you belong to", this girl is always busy and be seriously serious, she loves Be humble and active.
- "I can't be with you because my life is easy, but it's not easy to love you.
But I salute you because you never give up. "
——“I don’t give up because I can afford to lose, and I can afford to lose because I lose too much.”
"Americans always smile because success comes so easily." Why do Americans always laugh? "His people are like his country, and everything is easy for him."
I think that every girl who has humbled and loved, will be like me, burst into tears in the last scene of understanding and embrace?
This movie is one of the most thought-provoking American romance films I've ever seen. That era, from the 1940s to the 1960s, was the era when the class was just taking shape, and it was the era when the thinking became more active and chaotic; personal life, work, love, inevitably had to be connected with political and social events.
Dai Ye said: "You are fortunate to live in a small era, and you can make your own choices. In the big era we live in, every major political moment, every major historical event, he deeply impacts and affects your personal life. The difference between a big era and a small era is an era in which there is no absolute individualism to live alone, and no individual can isolate himself from the social space.”
